Celebrating our elders, their contributions and lust for life kicked off this week with a lunch for our centenarians in the gorgeous ballroom of Ripponlea. It’s lovely to see this event celebrating our 100 years plus community members and the level of Councillor engagement. Incredible life experience and stories in the room. Remarkable they were 100, it was almost a case of needing age identification.

Bella and I sampled some fabulous treats at the Caulfield Racecourse market today. So good to bump into Cr Shane McCluskey - Mulgrave Ward Councillor from Fire Services Victoria and Jacquie from Peninsula Community Legal Centre Legal and friends from VicPol and at the Glen Eira City Council tent.

So many great stalls and delicious things to eat, the sun is coming out and there’s music with the Rolling Show. Thank you Glen Eira City Council - Arts and Culture

A gorgeous sunny day in the park with friends. Sunshine and music thats Glen Eira’s Groove and Graze at its best. Listening to the Shovah on the eve of Yom Kippur. The tribe of 1-3 year olds taking over the mosh pit was an absolute treat. Thanks to our arts and culture team for this work bringing us this lovely event and the artists Angus Legg, My Alibi, Canisha, Sally Ford and the idiomatically, Nick Keogh and Fifth of Nissan.

Dog days are great days. Some of the best moments of any day are spent with my girl Bell. Always missing Lil, we aim to make the most of the time we have together.
